  1. dipCoreF4 and dipBoardF4, a compact Core.

    You can use the MBNET interconnection diagram, if your cores are in the same enclosure you don't need tranceiver but just one wire, with J18. The CAN interface will naturally transport MIDI, it's the MCAN
    Let me know if you want to try it, I can provide you a beta version of the MIOS32 with this feature inside...

    That's promising... is this new work around mios32 or did I miss this time ago ?

    I'm in standby right now with all this (my fader automation, which work great by the way...) and busy at the studio, but definitely interested...

    I'll come back to you when I have time, and if I'm not able to build mios32 by myself with all info at your link !

    ps: how is the physical wiring around J18 for two or more cores ?

    Ok, what i suppose is possible :)

    Alternate mios32 to flip I2C to extra uart midi I/O is fine :happy:

    I don't use optocoupler, but direct J11 connection (at 10x midi speed) in a design where 3 core (later 4) are linked together

    Your design can potentially reduce a lot of space if I want to fit everything in a one U rack (now it's a 3U...)

    Is it possible to change to another. NGR file by using load command (only NGR, the NGC should stay default) without changing the values of LED, BUTTON, AINSER, etc? 

    No you can only load a full set of files (NGC,NGR etc...) BUT i think you can trick this by having twice the same .NGC (with different name according to .NGR)

    The problem is that the C-2 note is sent from ch1 also to ch4, the rest is OK

    Not sure it's the reason, but you don't define any note, so maybe default is C-2, try with note=all

    1.Can I forward the AINSER value to LED and adjust the LED to send a CC value? 

    You can forward any event to any event, but I don't get the second part of your question, LED with different lit depending of value ?

    2.Can I forward the AINSER value to multiple LEDs(more fwd_id commands in EVENT_AINSER)? 

    Only one fwd_id allowed, you should forward to a sender and duplicate this sender (same hw_id different id) each one sending/forwarding to a different led.

    Or you use meta runscript and then do your forwarding/conditional at NGR.

  9. MIDIfying a Soundtracs Jade to control Protools

    Hello

    As I say, you can't modify the 32ch HUI limitation in PT

    You should be able to control way more channels in PT from your desk (remote) by using the fader bank

    Still I don't know how it react with 32 channels, dose the flip go per 8 meaning 1 to 32 then 9 to 40 etc...

    Or flip per 32, 1 to 32 then 33 to 64, you have to try.

    Anyway this will not be bidirectional. if you flip let say from 1-32 to 33-64, your first console channel no longer link to first PT channel which might be a problem in your use case as I understand it now.

    In fact the question is, do you need desk analog channel to be locked to the same PT channel all the time ?

     

    Ok, so you already hook the VCAs ?

     

    About protocol...

    In PT you have no options, HUI is 4, EuCon I don't know, but you won't get the protocol spec...

    In DP I'm able to use as many MCU modules as I want.

    Hi

    Ok... I was thinking you where stuck with 8, so I give a solution for 32 (max allowed simultaneously)

    You should be able to bank channels (zone 0a) to swap per 8 BUT in your specific use case where analog hardware can't be "relative" channel as it physically link audio to the channel you have no solution, except using a DAW that allow more controller units.

    Maybe you already do but did you make a call at GS or GroupDIY for the schemo

    Automating VCA is possible with MIOS, but without schemo and initial system spec it's difficult (need time to reverse engineer the VCA section)

    1. if I put as condition if_erqual=LED:2002:0 it does not respond.Is it possible to use LED as condition for EVENT_AINSER?

    It should.

    Make sure your tipo is not at NGC like here... if_erqual= won't work... if_equal= will !

    It seems that the snap function is connected to HW_ID not to the ID of the event.

    Can't confirm that, but if you observe this and are sure everything else is ok at your NGC then it's the case

    How fast is the switching to another ngc and ngr? 

     

    don't remember that exactly, but I guess the time to reboot, with fast boot flag at bootloader it's fast

    On 29/07/2018 at 3:30 PM, macsaif said:

    Do I have to do a  reset after switching(to start the ngc with hw reset) ? 

    IIRC you don't "have to"

    with reset, all previous definitions will be erased

    without reset they will remain after loading new files

    I see not so high activity in answering my questions, but it would be very helpful if somebody could answer them!

    Honestly most of your request/question here are handled by MB_NG, none will explain what is already explained at NG user manual

    Please have an extended read about it (i'm sure you already have some), write your .NGC / .NGR files and share when it don't work, then we can help fixing part of the configuration files.

    NG is powerful, sometimes there is different way available to achieve same result, it really depend of the whole picture, so again with a preliminary .NGC at your side it might help us helping you :happy:

     

    now,

    1- check if_equal= parameter

    2- check fwd_id parameter

    3 and 4 -check meta and snapshot

    5- not sure want you want here but maybe check bank mechanisme

    6- I already give you some idea about it, you have to try if it work...

  21. Sammich FM power supply?

    Hi

    Welcome here.

    Seem non legit seller to me, the ebay description is a copy/past from the wiki ...but I can be wrong.

    About power supply, you need 9V 500mA, that's common, pick whatever you find (SMPS should not be an issue)

    Hello Frank

    Everything is well documented at the NG user manual, specifically .NGC configuration file info for matrix and AINSER, with examples

    For HW id, first pin first SR is ID one, second pin first SR is ID 2....first pin second SR is ID 9 etc...

    You can monitor SR nb in debug mode.

    Ok, my bad, I just look at MB_KB manual, I was thinking it use the same .NGC .NGR text event definition but it's only configurable via mios studio terminal.

    Maybe its possible from other midi device (like NG) to trick sysex stream to enter and send data/config bit like mios studio ?

    It's up to you to define the event type you want to use as a trig for other event.

    The idea is to have different event activated depending of button status or external midi, it work.

    Now for transpose (in a NG router) I maybe just find something:

    receiver with note=all and use_key_number=1 to process the note n°

    range= have to be a map like (for 1octave transpose) 0:11 11:23 23:31 etc...

    You can also use a button that set pitchbend to different fixed value?
